Good Day.

I developed an ASP.net website to read and display data from XML files which are located in a directory.
The application works fine on my machine, but after deployment it doesnt seem to read the files because nothing is displayed.

maybe you need to verify:

0) if you use a file full-path (like : c:/dir/... ), else try to use Server.MapPath.
1) xml files exists.
2) you have permission to read files.
3) & ask server admin if his don't setup a custom configuration.

Solution 2

dear,
i think you have file permission problem. if you are using login authentication then you need to specify rights on that xml file directory. you have to specify <location> with directory name. search exact <location> properties and keywords. Hope it will help you

Thanks
